Guest chrislokeh Posted September 2, 2013 Posted September 2, 2013 on first reading it seems like another artist robbed by the buisnessmen , sad. The Motown Sound may be brilliant to us all,but behind the scenes it just stinks.Nearly every book you read on it Berry Gordy comes across as the big bad wolf.Except his own .
Steve S 60 Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 (edited) Very sad indeed. The royalties from "I Heard It Through The Grapevine" alone would have set him up comfortably for life. Should have read the small print. Edited September 3, 2013 by Steve S 60
